Why is Aims not involved with COF?

What does open admission mean?

Open admission is a policy that permits students to enter the college and enroll in course work. Entrance into specific courses, however, is limited to those who have demonstrated the ability to handle the work. Aims Community College will not deny admission to any district resident because of financial need as determined by the Student Financial Assistance Office.
No admission fee is required as a condition for admission. Admission does not assure acceptance of an individual student into a particular course or program. Admission to the College does not, therefore, imply entry into any program which has selective admission standards nor does it assure admission to courses and programs in which an applicant's mental or physical disability may, in the opinion of the College, appear to be impractical or dangerous.
The College may deny admission or re-enrollment to individuals who cannot benefit from the programs/courses offered or are considered detrimental to the best interest of the college community. Some students may be requested to enroll in special courses for correction of scholastic or other deficiencies as identified by the college's assessment process.
Minimum skill levels are required for admission to even basic education courses. (See Assessment Requirements)

myAims is a secure website maintained by the college where students can access such things as their email, grades, and online classes.

What is “Get Started”?

Get Started sessions let you talk with an advisor before you sign up for classes. A Get Started session will help you if you want to earn a degree or certificate from Aims.

We encourage you to ask questions and we will help you learn what you need to do to start college.

Does Aims have an honors program?

Aims does have an honors program that is open to any strongly committed student, regardless of prior honors experience. Students who graduate from honors programs typically enjoy improved access to scholarships and university honors programs, as well as attractive employment opportunities.
